[stringtemplate-interest] HTML escaping

[Roman Odaisky]

Greetings,

I’m looking for a template engine for a future Web project. I really like the 
strict philosophy of StringTemplate, but could you please explain one thing:

The manual says one should use renderers for escaping. That makes sense for 
applications that generate SQL, or C, but how does one use ST for JS embedded 
in HTML? <b>hello $user$</b> and alert("hello $user$") need different 
escaping, and the possible presence of <![CDATA[ complicates things further.

WBR, Roman.
